Listen Batman, the world isnt black and white. A man who has harmed millions has seen punishment for harming millions. Whether or not you find it just because a judge, jury, and prosecution didn't get to decide on that punishment according to some made up rules is your opinion. It does not speak to the "true colors" of the oppressed groups who are affected by the bullshit machine that is US healthcare.
Even if the penalty (death) can be morally justified it still shouldn't be celebrated. Also, I oppose death penalty - the people celebrating this have no moral standing to oppose it too. They're on the wrong side of history in my view.
there was nothing short of death that would stop that man from continuing to deny the right to live of millions of people. Money rules the world, do you think even if found guilty of genocide he'd face prison time? Do you think even if he was, miraculously, put in prison he'd go some place else but the most luxurious prison available for the shortest amount of time possible?
How many million dollar bottles of champagne do you think he drank with the money that he denied those who put their lives in his hands? Is that not a celebration of their deaths?
How is it wrong, to feel satisfaction that he finally met the fate he wrote for himself?
